The cooler evenings and intermittent rain storms have really been helping the fishing.  The water temps are down into the 50s and 60s and with the rain forecast for today, you can expect some even better fishing as fall keeps approaching.  Plus it’s really been helping the smoke problem.  For bugs on the menu…

  The weather has really been improving with fall getting closer and the rain has really helped the smoke problem too.  With more rain forecast, the conditions will continue to get nothing but better.  The lower Clark Fork is going to be an excellent option for some great mayfly action, just make sure you bring…

  With the smoke gone and the temperatures dropping, the Bitterroot has really turned the corner.  Hecubas, Tricos, PMDs, and BWOs have all been coming off in the mornings and with the weather on tap for today, it’s looking more like an all day affair.  Bring some parachute PMDs, parachute adams, BWO sparkle duns, purple…

  With the smoke gone and the mild rain storms we’ve been having, the fishing has really picked up.  The water temps are staying in the low 60s and the flows are giving some historically good wade fishing access.  It’s everything you can expect as fall gets closer.  The morning fishing has been great with…

Fall fishing will be off the hook

  Rock Creek is still fishing quite well, even after the small rain storm we just saw. Don’t be surprised to see another one of those later in the week, as we’re in for some additional moisture later this week. For dry flies, use chubby Chernobyls, stimulators, bullet head stones, half downs, parachute adams, purple…

  The Blackfoot is still fishing well all day long including the evenings, which are now open. Unfortunately, the Tributaries all close at 2pm still so make sure you’re prepared for that. Hopper dropper rigs will be your best bet until you start to see the dry fly fishing heat up.  Streamers can be killer…

    The Bitterroot has been fishing very well the last couple days.   A hopper/dropper rig should be a pretty decent bet to start with until the bugs start popping. For dries, use PMDs, Small baetis, purple hazes, tricos, drakes, yellow sallies, caddis, Golden stones, hoppers, and other attractor patterns. For nymphs, use pheasant tails,…

  The Clark Fork is going to be a decent option today with the weather we have on tap.  Bring some baetis’, chubby patterns and hoppers.  The bump in flows that we have seen hasn’t had any detriment to the fishing, since there really wasn’t much rain.  For dries, use elk hair and Goddard caddis’…

The Blackfoot is still fishing well all day long including the evenings, which are now open.  Unfortunately, the Tributaries all close at 2pm still so make sure you’re prepared for that.  With that said, and fall quickly approaching, the fishing is picking up with every cooler night.  For the mornings, you can expect a smattering…
